[ILUG] postfix/mail delivery

Try using formail instead. The article I linked off the main page at
http://www.linux.ie/ about stopping spam explains you should use the
following,

cat mbox | formail -s procmail

or for those who don't like cats, this should work equally as well,

formail -s procmail < mbox

to test your procmail recipes..
